Abstract
[Extract] Ross Fitzgerald's book is an effective history of Queensland politics, and its clear writing style and readability should allow it to engage with its target non-specialist audience. However, this is a political history and in only 280 pages of text it has little room to explore other aspects of Queensland's history in any depth. A select bibliography, arranged by topic, provides a starting point for those wishing to explore other aspects of Queensland's history.
